Allow users to add SMS address via Web Interface

Question

We would like users to be able to add their mobile number and carrier information from within the web console.

Preferably, they would enter their mobile number in a text box, and select their carrier friendly name (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) from a dropdown list.

Once entered, remove any special characters (parenthesis, spaces, hyphens, etc.), have the carrier friendly name be replaced by the email domain (@vtext.com, @txt.att.net, etc.) and would get concatenated to the number.

For example, if a user would enter "(800) 555-1212" in to a text box, and select "AT&T", the resulting address would be "8005551212@txt.att.net". This address would then be written to an extensionAttribute field in Active Directory.

Comments

Please disregard this request. I was able to figure out how to do this on my own.

I accomplished this by using the adm-CustomAttributeText fields, and a Property Pattern to limit one of them to only the carrier names.

I then created a Business Rule to run a PowerShell Script if the CustomAttributes were changed (sorry I am not a coder so probably ugly)

Import-Module Adaxes

# Remove Parenthesis, Hyphens, and Spaces from Mobile Number
$Mobile = ($Context.TargetObject.Get("adm-CustomAttributeText2"))
$MobileMap =@{ "("=""; ")"=""; "-"="";" "=""; }
foreach ($MobileMapKey in $MobileMap.Keys) {$Mobile = $Mobile.Replace($MobileMapKey, $MobileMap[$MobileMapKey])}
$Context.SetModifiedPropertyValue(("adm-CustomAttributeText4"), $Mobile)

# Replace Carrier Name with Carrier Address
$Carrier = ($Context.TargetObject.Get("adm-CustomAttributeText3"))
$CarrierMap =@{ "AT&T"="@txt.att.net"; "Sprint"="@messaging.sprintpcs.com"; "T-Mobile"="@tmomail.net"; "Verizon - Personal"="@vtext.com"; "Virgin Mobile"="@vmobl.com"; "Mobi PCS"="@mobipcs.net"; }
foreach ($CarrierMapKey in $CarrierMap.Keys) {$Carrier = $Carrier.Replace($CarrierMapKey, $CarrierMap[$CarrierMapKey])}
$Context.SetModifiedPropertyValue(("adm-CustomAttributeText3"), $Carrier)

# Replace SMS Address
Set-ADMUser -Identity %username% -Replace @{extensionAttribute15 = $Mobile + $Carrier}

# Wait Timer to allow AD to update before page is refreshed
Start-Sleep -s 10

# Log Information
$Context.LogMessage(("SMS Address Updated") + ": " + $Mobile + $Carrier, "Information")

I then Customized the Display Names and Updated the Web Page to allow users to update their information.
